Consulting

When you’re looking at hiring Network design consultants for your project, it’s important to do your research so that you choose a company that not only can get the job done, but get the job done well. Here are things you should be looking for when shopping for a Network design consultant.

Service Offerings: This may seem like a no brainer, but it’s an important consideration when shopping for the right design company. Every Network consultation design company is different and you may be surprised to learn that not all commercial providers offer residential services or vice versa. Ask about what services are available and what services the design company specializes in. If the services offered and specialized in match your needs, you’ve found a great prospective vendor to work with. If not, you’ll want to keep looking.

Personalized Service: Working with Network consultants can be a challenge when you don’t know what you need for a project. However, finding a company who offers personalized service eliminates any conflict. Work with a company who can design a network based on your needs, no matter what they may be. You know you’ve found a good company when you can describe what you want to achieve and the consultants come back with a plan of action.

Clear Expectations: Consultants that set expectations early on and are clear about the specifications of the project ensures that confusion is kept to a minimum. Work with your company to discuss the terms of your project, timelines, technical aspects, or other concerns. Communication is key at every step of the process, so you want a company that can work with you to keep you informed of progress at every step of the way.

Experience: Your project, no matter what its size or scale, requires a consultant who knows what he or she is doing. Working with an experienced consultant ensures that you get the knowledgeable, skilled service you need. Why should you pay for anything less?

Reviews and Customer Feedback: Ask the company if they’d be willing to provide references or customer testimonials. Having reviews or customer feedback to work from can help you make the right decision when shopping for the appropriate service provider. Get as much feedback as you can. Make sure that you’re working with a company who can deliver on its promises of exceptional service.

At frayednot, LLC, we can provide you with all of these things and more. Our years of experience will assist in you in putting together a network design based on your unique needs and feedback. You tell us what you want and we make it happen.

Networking Setup & Security

Our networking services will give you the ability and mobility of enjoying wired/wireless access to file, printer and internet sharing. Robust wireless networks are becoming more common due to their increasing speeds in bandwidth and versatility being totally mobile. Wireless networks are the key ingredient to giving you the control to many smart home features from your phone. Wireless audio distributed systems(such as Sonos) only work under your wifi range. Blanketing the home with wifi thus becomes the most important part of any AV system as it is the infrastructure that will allow your entertainment lifestyle to function with ease and be enjoyable rather than a frustration. We will design and setup up your roaming wireless home network with full access to any shared devices within your office or household. We will secure, encrypt and protect you from third party intrusions to ensure your time on the internet is hassle-free! We will strategically place access points throughout your home(locations are based on our testing) to cover every inch with a good, reliable, solid and consistent signal to keep your device online. Outside as well! Don’t delay and give us a call today!

Wi-Fi Blanket Coverage

The one-router

model isn’t working

Relying on a single router is like asking a loud speaker in your living room to provide great sound throughout your home. It’s simple physics: WiFi waves don’t go through walls well and have an even harder time climbing stairs. Ever tried to stream a show from your bedroom when your router’s in the office downstairs? It’s a buffering nightmare.

To solve this, you need multiple access points — devices that broadcast WiFi — strategically distributed throughout your home and properly configured to provide coverage everywhere in the home, even outside. Blanketing your home with one single seamless roaming wireless network means you can go anywhere in your home without losing signal. Multiple access points allow your devices to go anywhere freely without signal drops. When the device(laptop, iPhone/Android/iPad, etc…) moves far enough from one of the access points, it will automatically hop on to the next strongest access point signal it finds. When placed properly throughout the home, coverage everywhere can be achieved for a fully blanketed wireless home wifi network. frayednot can deliver this solution as we are experts in designing and implementing whole house wireless networks.

To achieve that picture perfect image being thrown from the projector to your screen, projectors, just like televisions and monitors, may need a little tweaking to make them look their best. Every source (DVD player, Cable box, Apple TV or Blu-ray player) you connect to your projector will have a slightly different output. Your video settings will all be affected. Therefore, the picture issue should be resolved by calibrating your projector or television with your source. Below is the recommended order for setting calibrations.

Five Elements of Video:

Brightness(Black Level)

Contrast or Picture(White Level)

Color(Saturation or Chroma)

Tint(Hue)

Sharpness(Detail)

As well as Seating layout & Seating options.

"I found frayednot from a flyer in a local health club. I was intrigued by the name, slogan and design of the flyer so I gave them a call. I spoke with Constantinos who came out right away to see what I had currently going on and to talk about how we can upgrade. The guy was very knowledgeable, personable and polite. We went over a bunch of things and scheduled to have frayednot do the work. They did a great job keeping a lot of the existing equipment and integrating new technology to get us up to speed and keep cost down. I am very happy with frayednot! They paid attention to my concerns and kept my pocket just as happy as I was!"

Gregory Plaston

"We were behind the times with the original entertainment setup, so we decided to have some Apple TV's added to our existing setup. A couple days later, we were up and running with Apple TV's in all of the rooms and a WiFi that reaches everywhere in the house, even outside by the patio and pool area! What can be done from our iPhones, iPad's and Apple TV's is awesome! Frayednot is great!"

Gina Schmirstein

"After Constantinos installed our new surveillance system, it gave me a sense of security with what actually goes on in our restaurant. I love the fact that I can easily view what is going on from my iPad and from my iPhone anytime no matter where I am! I really wish I had you do this sooner. Thank you again for explaining how it all works as well as going the extra mile to get the cable company involved and having it done without it becoming a hassle for us since we are open every day. Constantinos was very accommodating when I told him that it had to be done during ‘off/slow hours’. Thank you again!!"

Amanda T., Amanda's Bistro

"Turning our house into a 'smart-home' was the best choice we made! Having control right from the iPad, iPhone, my kids iPod touch devices, laptops, computers, is just so simple! I love turning on my music and telling it what to play and where to play right from my phone! That is my favorite feature! We just had another 'movie night'. The theater is great! It sounds better than going out to the movies. The quality of the video is just crystal clear. We are thrilled with all of this!"

The Gram's

"Thank you for all the time and attention to detail. We LOVE our new Media Room. It looks and sounds incredible! I can't believe how simple it is to operate. The entire family can easily control the system without hesitation. Thank you again!!"
